Our sponsors
“Quake has been one of the most impactful investors for our team and our trajectory. Since joining the Cap Table a little over a year ago, they’ve helped us land flagship customers, raise an additional $7M in funding, and increase our valuation by over 5x. They are the definition of value-add investors, and any founder would be lucky to have them on board.”
Jordan Justus
“Quake Capital is every entrepreneur’s dream investor. Many funds claim to be partners; Quake truly delivers, in every aspect. The folks at Quake really take their investments to heart. And they are always there to support. We can’t recommend them highly enough, and we feel privileged to have them in our corner.”
Pierre Laguerre
“Always there for the good, the bad, the ugly, Quake is a consistent investor who is there for their founders. One of the few investors that continues to add value beyond their capital. I wish our entire cap table could be filled with more teams like Quake.”
